Mom and Dad’s Canon (S200)
Downloading
1. First, start with the camera power off. Connect it to the computer via the USB cable.
2. Double Click on the "Canon ZoomBrowser" icon
3. Turn Camera On. Make sure it’s in download mode (triangle)
4. You will see a window, Here it is asking you what software you want to send the pictures from the camera to.
The window title is “IXY … event”
Click on “Canon ZoomBrowser EX”
5. Next, you will see a Window entitled “Zoom Browser Automation”
Here, you pick what you want ZoomBrowser to do with the pictures from the camera. The current setup is to automatically download the pictures. So, just click “Start”
6. Zoombrowser EX is opened, and the pictures are downloaded.
All pictures are downloaded in a new folder with today’s date
At this point you can safely erase the pictures from the camera, because they are now stored on your computer.
7. Turn the camera off at this point to save battery.
8. In ZoomBrowser EX, you can rename the folder it created to put the pictures in, by right-clicking on the folder name, and left-click “Rename Folder.” Then type the new name for the folder over the old name.
To Crop a picture:
1. First, in ZoomBrowser EX, single-click on the picture to select it. A blue box will be around the picture.
2. You can crop the picture if you like. Double-click the picture or click the “View Image” button. Click a corner, then drag to another corner, and let the mouse go. Then click the “Crop” button.
3. Click the “Save As” round button beneath the picture. For “filename,” Enter a different name from the original picture, if you want to save the original one. Then hit Enter, or click the “Save” button.
To attach a picture to email:
While the picture is selected in Zoombrowser EX, on the “Internet” menu, click "Send Image(s) by E-mail."
Resizing a picture: If an image file is very large, it may take a long time for someone with dialup access to the Internet to receive the file.
If you don't want to resize the picture, click "Send image(s) without compression, Then click "Next," and skip to "Sending picture in email" below.
To resize the picture (change the resolution) to make it a smaller file:
a. In the next window, entitled “Select Compression,” click on “Resize and compress images into JPEG format.” Then click "Next"
b. In the next window, entitled “Select Image Quality,” type a number for “Resize Image Dimensions.” Pick a number less than 100% to make the picture smaller. For example, try 50%. Click the “Compress” button. It will show how big the file is. For example, at 50% compression, a file that was original 457K was compressed to 107K. This is a reasonable size to send via email. The program recommends that files <300K are more convenient to send by email. (Your mileage may vary.) Play around with different % compressions if you like. Hit the “Compress” button after each try. When you are happy with the size of the new file it will make, click the “Next” button.
Sending picture in Email (after resizing, or if you skipped the resizing step above):
The next window is entitled "Send Email". If you want to see how the picture will look at this compression, click the "Preview" button.
Close the "Email Image Viewer Window" when you are finished previewing the picture. If you don’t like it (perhaps you compressed it too much and it’s hard to see), back up (Hit the "Back" button) and try again.
When you are happy with how the picture looks,
Click the "Start e-mail program" radio button.
Then click the "Finish" button here in the "Send Email" window.
Your email program starts (yours is Eudora) and the picture is attached. Enter the address to send it to, a Subject line, and any other text you like. Hit the SEND button when you are finished.

most peripherals are plug and play... connect the usb cable from your camera to the computer and normally if you are using the latest version of OS, it will open a wizard screen or if not, look for a new hardware found icon at the bottom right by the clock, click it and read the prompts and follow.. it'll be simple, trust me..
